Core Features & Use Cases

  • Import instincts from exported files to extend the current project's capabilities.
  • Merge duplicates deterministically using a defined strategy and preserve provenance metadata.
  • Apply changes with a dry-run preview or an apply mode to ensure safe integration, with audit trails.

Quick Start

Run the instinct CLI to import instincts from an export file into your project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I import instincts from an export file into my project?

You can import instincts by running the instinct CLI against an export file. This enables reuse and migration of AI-driven patterns across repositories by applying a defined merge strategy.

What is the best way to merge duplicate instincts during an import?

The best way to merge duplicates during an import is to use the defined merge strategy. This deterministically consolidates instincts while preserving provenance metadata like imported_from and imported_at.

Can I preview an instinct import before applying changes to my repository?

Yes, you can preview an instinct import using dry-run mode. This shows the changes before they are committed, allowing for auditable integration before you switch to apply mode.

How does provenance tracking work when importing instincts across repositories?

Provenance tracking works by preserving imported_from and imported_at tags during the import. This creates an auditable trail of where and when AI-driven patterns were integrated into the project.

Why use a CLI to migrate AI patterns instead of copying files manually?

Using a CLI to migrate AI patterns ensures deterministic duplicate merging and preserved provenance metadata, unlike manual copies. It provides dry-run previews and audit trails for safe integration.
